Bibliography Primary Sources: Bedwell, Michael. "Summer Pride Parade 1975." Gay Military Signal. N.p., 2010. Web.

17 Dec. 2012. The website "Gay Military Signal" is a secondary source, but the photo that they published on the site is primary. It gives an account of the National Gay Task Force, and the fact that the amount of clubs and events were spreading. Bill. "Stonewall and the First Gay Pride Parade." The Bitter Old Queen. Blogspot, 21 June 2010. Web. 9 Nov. 2012. Although this journal entry is a blog post and was posted in 2010, the author "Bill," is writing about his experience with the Stonewall Riots and the year or so following the riots. He talks about his experience coming out to his closest friend, and what it was like for him to participate in the Gay Liberation Day of 1970. Due to the fact that this blog post is essentially like a diary entry of his memories of the past, and "Bill" was actually, physically present, this blog post can be considered a primary source. Davies, Diana. Stonewall Inn in 1969. 1969. The Leadership Conference. Web. 26 Dec. 2012. This image was taken by Diana Davies in 1969, capturing the Stonewall Inn. This is the location where the riots took place, and sparked the change in the idea of LGBT equality. Heilbroner, David. "Stonewall Uprising." Stonewall Uprising. Dir. Kate Davis. PBS. N.d.PBS. PBS. Web. 21 Oct. 2012. The video cited above was based on the book by David Carter, Stonewall: The Riots that Sparked the Gay Revolution. The video uses interviews from both police officers raiding the gay bar, and patrons who were in the midst of the chaos. It also shows videos and propaganda from the 1960s that were against homosexuality. The video is primary because of the fact that it has pure facts, interviews and direct video and photos from the riots and the time around the riots. It is possible that some information in the video is not of primary sources. "Massachusetts Law about Same-Sex Marriage." Massachusetts Trial Court Law Libraries. Commonwealth of Massachusetts, n.d. Web. 4 Jan. 2013. This website gives the official court cases and laws about same-sex marriage in Massachusetts. It also gives information for other states that allow same-sex marriage. This proves that LGBT equality work has made an impact in our equality today. Me in SanFran. "Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day 1970." Flickr. Yahoo!, 19 Apr. 2011. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. Flickr is a location of secondary sources, but this image is a primary source, due to the fact that it was taken on the Gay Liberation Day of 1970. A large banner is

being held up, indicating the day and it's purpose, and is a primary source of one of the first major events to occur furthering LGBT equality after the riots. Me in SanFran. "Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day 1970." Flickr. Yahoo!, 19 Apr. 2011. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. This primary source photograph portrays a large mass of people walking in 1970 on the Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day. Among the crowd is a large banner that screams "LESBIANS UNITE." The idea of LGBT equality was able to spread farther because of it's inability to see race or gender. Me in SanFran. "Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day 1970." Flickr. Yahoo!, 19 Apr. 2011. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. In this photograph, a primary source due to the fact that it was taken during the first Gay Liberation Day in New York in 1970, to the right, a man is holdingmy up a sign advertising "The Mattachine Society of Washington." The society was created before the Stonewall Riots, but had never been heard of until afterwards, when people began caring about the idea of LGBT equality Me In SanFran. "Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day 1977." Flickr. Yahoo!, 19 Apr. 2011. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. In this primary photograph, taken in 1977 during the Gay Liberation Day on Christopher Street, the location of the Stonewall Inn, a mother is holding a sign that reveals "My Son Is Gay and That's Okay." The Stonewall Riots led to the idea of acceptance from parents of gay children who choose to reveal their sexuality. Me in SanFran. "Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day 1977." Flickr. Yahoo!, 19 Apr. 2011. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. This primary source photograph demonstrates that the idea of LGBT equality spread to religion, something sacred to many and usually untouched when debating things. For an idea to hit on the topic of religion, especially Christianity, then it must be fairly large and/or debatable. Me in SanFran. "Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day 1979." Flickr. Yahoo!, 22 Apr. 2011. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. Although Flickr is a secondary information location, the image itself is primary, due to the fact that it was taking during the 1979 Gay Liberation Day. This image shows participants walking, holding a sign that indicates "The Advocate Experience" as their supporter. This is yet another magazine/club that was born due to the Stonewall riots. Me in SanFran. "Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day 1979." Flickr. Yahoo!, 22 Apr. 2011. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. This primary source photograph, taken in 1979 during a Gay Liberation Day, shows two black, gay men relaxing together on grass. The idea of LGBT equality

has no eyes, and does not see race. The Stonewall Riots created the idea of equality, no matter the race. Mireille_Creates. "The Black Lesbian Caucus 1972 NY Gay Pride." Flickr. Yahoo!, 4 Apr. 2006. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. This is a 1972 primary photograph of the Black Lesbian Caucus in the New York Gay Pride parade. The instance of both black and lesbians, let alone together, in a pride parade indicates that the idea of equality spread across all platforms of people, no matter the race or gender. O' Neal, Hank. "1974." TimeOut New York. TimeOUt, 22 June 2009. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. In this primary photograph taken in 1974 during a pride parade, a father dressed in business attire is holding a sign that claims "I'm PROUD of my Gay Son." To the left, mothers of gay children are holding signs saying "I will not be a CLOSET MOTHER" and "Come Out! Parents of Gays." The Stonewall Riots led to the idea that youth children should come out. Before the riots, many would not have dreamed of the idea, fearing prosecution, bullying, and arrest. But after the riots, the idea of coming out of the closet was not something to be feared quite as much. "Remembering Stonewall." Gender Issues and Sexuality: Essential Primary Sources. Ed. K. Lee Lerner, Brenda Wilmoth Lerner, and Adrienne Wilmoth Lerner. Detroit: Gale, 2006. 127-129. Gale Virtual Reference Library. Web. 9 Oct. 2012. Remembering Stonewall is a radio transcript by National Public Radio. The show aired July 1, 1989 and holds various accounts from multiple witnesses and participants in the uprisings. The transcripts give accounts from people who were actually there and are able to give an eye-witness testimony of the actions that were claimed. Mostwitnesses quoted were policemen, but a journalist also gave his account of being trapped inside the Inn with the policemen. They spoke of large, furious crowds chanting and even uprooting parking meters for use as weapons. Sherman, Martin. "A Hot Night in June," OutHistory. November 1994. Web. 14 Dec.. 2012. Here is a personal account of what occurred during that Hot Night in June. Sherman talk about how he stumbled across history that night, although he did not realize it. Smith, Warren Allen. Interview by Stiliana Dimkova. 9 Feb. 2004. Warren Allen Smith is a Stonewall Riots Veteran and anti-rights activist during his lifetime, since birth in 1921. The interviewer asks questions about his experience on the night of the riots, as well as his experience of being gay during such a debatable and unprotected time. Because Mr. Smith is giving his direct experience of the night, his words can be quoted as primary sources. He may be

biased towards the LGBT community, over exaggerating what the police did to make them seem crazed and unethical. White, Edmund. Letter to Ann and Alfred Corn. 8 July 1969. Edmund White: Letter to Ann and Alfred Corn, July 8, 1969. N.p.: n.p., n.d. N. pag. OutHistory. Web. 21 Oct. 2012. Edmund White is a poet and author, who was at the raids at the Stonewall Inn. About two weeks after the raids, White is sending a letter to his friends Ann and Alfred Corn, he recollects that night from his memory and retells it to his friends. He speaks of the mob bosses being dragged into police cars, and of men ripping up parking meters. He says that the big news in New York is "Gay Power." This letter is a primary source because it is a retrospect of the night from an eyewitness. Although he is a writer, and therefore supposedly highly intellectual, he still has a bias. He most likely has a biased against the police officers. Secondary Sources: 20 Years of GLSEN. Youtube. Google, 26 May 2010. Web. 19 Dec. 2012. This video is a secondary source, for it did not occur during the Stonewall Riots. I used this video to gain information on the history of GLSEN, a world renowned LGBT association. Alice, Lynette. "The History and Impact of the Stonewall Riots." Helium. RR Donnelley, 1 June 2008. Web. 2 Nov. 2012. Lynette Alice summarizes not only the night of the Stonewall riot, but touches on the daily life of an LGBT person in New York and explains a few clubs and traditions that came along because of the riot. This is a secondary source, as she uses primary sources to create her own summary of the events. She was not actually there the night of the riots, and does not know exactly what happened. Also, because we do not know the writer's background, we are unsure if she would be biased towards LGBT members or homophobic people. Bateman, Geoffrey W. "Gay Liberation Front." An Encyclopedia on Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer Culture. Ed. Claude J. Summers. Chicago: Glbtq, 2005. Glbtq. Web. 5 Nov. 2012. In this online encyclopedia reference, Geoffrey Bateman gives a historical background of the Gay Liberation Front. Its mission statement clearly defines its goal to abolish the traditional marriage and family idea. While short lived, having ended in 1972 due to inner club turmoils, the Gay Liberation Front spread across multiple countries, and its members continued to promote equal rights even with its absence. Bernhartz, Victor. "Queer America in the 70s and 80s." Just a Little Lovin'. Blogspot, 10 May 2011. Web. 17 Dec. 2012. This article is a secondary source, for it was written by someone taking primary sources and condensing the information. The article gives and insight to what life

was like for queer Americans and the queer community in the 1970s and the 1980s. It also mentions the growth of LGBT activism. Carter, David. Stonewall: The Riots That Sparked the Gay Revolution, by David Carter. New York: St. Martin's, 2004. Print. This book is divided into three different parts: what led to the uprising, what occurred during the uprising itself, and how the uprising has affected the LGBT community and their fight towards equality. Carter is a historian, and was not physically there before or during the riots. What he says about them has come from his own research and primary sources, therefore making this a secondary source. Carter is a very avid historian and writer for history in the LGBT community, so he may subconsciously "side" with the LGBT community while making decisions about who was at fault for these riots. Gay and Lesbian Activists Alliance. Gay and Lesbian Activists Alliance of Washington D.C., 2012. Web. 17 Nov. 2012. Gay and Lesbian Activists Alliance is an alliance that stemmed from the downfall of the Gay Liberation Front. It was created in 1971, and "...defends the civil rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in the Nation's Capital." They also held the first ever pride parade and rally on the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots. The website is a secondary source, as it was not around in 1971. Also, the information on the website is a secondary source. Although it is 100% correct when giving information about itself, it was not information that was created during the Stonewall Riots. The GLAA is a effect of the riots that created a club and multiple events about the LGBTQ community. "Goodstein, David (1932-1985)." GLBTQ: An Encyclopedia of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgendered, and Queer Culture. 1-3. GLBTQ Inc., n.d. Web. 14 Dec. 2012. This article is an encyclopedia entry, making it a secondary source. The information I used does not regard David Goodstein directly. Instead, i reference material on an LGBT club and magazine he headed called The National Gay Rights Lobby and the Advocate Experience, of the 1970s. This was a club that created in a time directly after the Stonewall Riots, in an attempt to further the call for LGBT equality. Grossman, Joanna L. "Going to the Show: The Supreme Court Will Consider Validity of Same-Sex Marriage Bans." Verdict. Justia.com, 11 Dec. 2012. Web. 4 Jan. 2013. This is very recent article, discussing how the Supreme Court of the United States will begin to review cases that are for same-sex marriage. LGBT equality has managed to perforate into the Supreme Judicial system, and not just separate state courts. "History." The Task Force. N.p., n.d. Web. 21 Dec. 2012. Although this gives the direct history of The Task Force, this would be a secondary source due to the fact that it did not occur during the creation or

during the riots. I used this article to gather information on the history of The Task Force, such as when they were created, where, and how they expanded. McBride, Dennis. Interview by Brooke Gantman. 12 Jan. 2013. This interview was conducted by me, with the Director of the Nevada State Museum. Much to my surprise, Mr. McBride has been openly gay since the 70s, created the LGBT archives at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and is currently working on a piece of literature concerning LGBT history in Nevada. This would be a secondary source, however, because he was not at the Stonewall Riots themselves. McLean, Charles. "Don't Ask. Tell." The Daily Beast. Newsweek, 3 June 2010. Web. 4 Jan. 2013. <http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2010/06/04/don-t-asktell.html>. In this article, McLean is discussing why the military should repeal the Dont Ask, Dont Tell policy. This proves that the idea of LGBT equality has withstanded to not only the twenty first century, but has pushed through into our government and military. Peters, Jeremy W. "Why the Gay Rights Movement Has No National Leader." NY Times. New York Times, 20 June 2009. Web. 4 Jan. 2013. In this article, Peters discusses that this movement or revolution, has no national leader, but is still continuing to grow and develop. This movement is coming off as stronger than the civil rights movement or womans suffrage movement because of the fact that there is no basic leader to turn to when things become difficult. "Timeline: Same-sex Marriage." CNN. Central News Network, 18 Oct. 2012. Web. 4 Jan. 2013. CNN gives a timeline of milestones that the LGBT community has reached in an attempt to make marriage legal in all 50 states. Wright, Lionel. "The Stonewall Riots - 1969 A Turning Point in the Struggle for Gay and Lesbian Liberation." Socialist Alternative. Socialist Alternative, 1 July 1999. Web. 9 Oct. 2012. Originally appearing in Socialism Today, this website article begins to talk about the Stonewall Riots. The author explains what happened, what side claims what, and the general LGBT scene in 1969. The author has done his own research and created his own conclusions, making this a secondary source. Lionel Wright also begins to talk about how the riots birthed the first gay rights activist groups, and how they have risen in not only population but popularity.
